Things I’ve done recently that should win me “Mother of the Year”
Category: Motherhood |
  • I Called my husband on the way to work and demanded that he TiVo Today because the cast of High School Musical would be on and performing - something LilZ hadn’t even heard about yet. Which means I could have totally gotten away with NOT recording it but I knew he’d want to see it and I’m selfless like that.
  • I still loved on NikkiZ last night even after she puked all over my favorite suede clogs. I could have grounded her, you know.
  • I sat down and watched the new Disney show Hannah Montana with LilZ and actually LIKED it a little bit. Or maybe a lot and I’m just pretending I only liked it a little bit to try to maintain some dignity.
  • I gave in to LilZ’s request that I NOT videotape him at his school dance this weekend. Even though I really wanted to. Although I did not give up my right to at least photograph him. He can’t make me put down my camera, but I told him I’d do it sneakily so none of his friends saw me. I’ll be his personal paparazzi.

      I totally set the Today show to record this morning. And I live alone so I can’t say it was for someone else!

      And I may or may not have liked Hannah Montana when I watched it last week. I will not say which. But I will say that I hope they’ll bust out into “Achy Breaky Heart” one episode and that is the sole reason why I’m watching it.

      I TOTALLY thought about you while I was in the shower this morning.
      I could hear Matt Lauer talking to the cast of High School Musical!

      I saw that on the Today show this morning and thought of Lil Z. Too funny.

      Fellow zoot suit rioters, I think that an intervention may be necessary for the Zoot family in the near future to counteract the insidious brainwashing techniques of the High School Musicologists. My proposed deprogramming strategy will involve copious amounts of Krispy Kreme donuts and Archer Farm snacks to gain their trust, followed repeated viewings of Grease, parts 1 AND 2, while they are strapped into Clockwork Orange-like involuntary viewing chairs. Hey, “Beauty School Dropout” and even “Cool Rider” have got to be better than that “we’re all in this together” crap, right? RIGHT?

      Please tell me you’ll be posting the paparazzi pics for the whole Internet to see. I mean, it would embarrass the crap out of me, but luckily I’m not in middle school anymore and it’s amusing when it happens to someone else. =)

      Seriously, though, LilZ’s first dance? MUST be captured on film.

      Poor little muffin, puking. My little man puked on me yesterday, first thing when he woke up and it made me think that there’s no one else in the world (besides his sister, of course) who could puke on me without me also puking. Ahhh, the love we have for our children.

    7. Latte Man Says:

      I have avoided Hanna Montana thus far. It scares me. Just from the commercials alone. AND I am sick of the “Concert” Commercial for it.

      Doesn’t you Camera have a VIDEO mode for LilZ’s school dance?

      Isn’t it great that Moms know what their kids want & do it for them, without them even knowing about it?! You sound like a great Mom. Way to go girl!
